News outlets lately have all been focusing on one thing- the Covid-19 (coronavirus as we know it). Day in, day out the figures across the globe fluctuates as new tests show positive results all the while, others are taking their last breath.

Through it all, one thing is clear-the virus to some extent favours the younger generation as many young people who have tested positive for the virus have been sent home to self-isolate and treat themselves.

Below are first hand account of two Ghanaian patients of the virus living abroad (U.K. & Lativia) who are undergoing treatment in self isolation. The motive behind sharing their story is to spread calm while placing emphasis on the importance of social distancing.

The patients share tips on medication to use and avoid while treating symptoms; they also share the steps to embark on once you feel symptoms setting in. Some of these tips include

1.When you feel your throat drying up,drink water2.Have vitamin C in and on you (either chewies or the soluble but the soluble is highly recommended)3.If you can, get a humidifier with essential oils to help ‘moisturise the atmosphere and help you breathe better4.Should you have a headache, stick to paracetamol and stay away from Ibuprofen as it worsens the condition(that is if you do have the virus).

It is clear that although Covid-19 is a deadly virus, it is not a death sentence and making the conscious effort to fight it is crucial on our journey to kick this pandemic out. Bare in mind, the protocols for preventing catching the virus remain

1.Wash your hands with soap under running water for at least 20sec.2.Keep a sanitizer on you at all times; and use it3.If you have to sneeze or cough, do not do it into you palm. Just dab4.Do not touch your face5.Avoid contact with people6.Stay hydrated and stock up on vitamin c

It is our duty to ourselves to stay safe and healthy at all times and until this virus passes, let us be as hygienic as one can be.

Mario Balotelli ‘Sacked’ By His Club Brescia After Skipping Training For 10 Days

Italian football striker, Mario Balotelli has reportedly been sacked by his club Brescia after he skipped training for ten days.

Reports in Italy on Saturday morning claimed Brescia owner Massimo Cellino sent the controversial footballer a letter requesting the termination of his three-year contract at the club after he failed to show up for training when lockdown restrictions were eased.

The 29-year-old former Manchester City and Liverpool player was contracted to Brescia until 2022, following the £160,000-per-week deal he signed with his hometown club back in August 2019.

It was reported that his contract with Brescia was set to be terminated at the end of the 2019/20 campaign. But according to Football Italia and Gazzetta dello Sport, his contract with the club has now been terminated.

Newspaper Repubblica also claimed that both Cellino and Balotelli, who earns £877,000-a-year at Brescia have also reached a financial settlement.

Speaking in a recent interview with BBC, Cellino admitted his regret at signing Balotelli who scored five goals in 19 games for the club.

He said: ‘I think we both made a mistake,’ Cellino told the BBC’s World Football programme.

‘I thought that coming to Brescia, which is his town, would commit him very much.

‘At the same time, I think he was handled the wrong way by my previous coach [Eugenio Corini].

‘He doesn’t show up to training, he doesn’t look very committed let’s say, for the future of the club. That’s the problem.

‘Balotelli’s got a contract in Serie A, but he doesn’t have a contract in Serie B. So if we’re relegated, Balotelli won’t have a contract any more.

‘Balotelli apparently doesn’t like to stay in Italy anymore because he’s not acting that way.’

Michael Jordan and Jordan Brand on Friday announced a $100 million donation to help the ongoing fight against racial injustice.

In a joint statement released by his manager Estee Portnoy, the basketball legend said that over the next 10 years, he and his brand will donate $100 million to “organizations dedicated to ensuring racial equality, social justice and greater access to education.”

It continues, “The will, the work, the excellence the world has come to know is the result of one generation after another, pouring their dreams into the next. It’s 2020, and our family now includes anyone who aspires to our way of life. Yet as much as things have changed, the worst remains the same.”

“Black lives matter. This isn’t a controversial statement. Until the ingrained racism that allows our country’s institutions to fail is completely eradicated, we will remain committed to protecting and improving the lives of Black people,” they share.

We need to continue peaceful expressions against injustice and demand accountability.”
